Are aftermarket seats taller than the stock seats?

I sit too tall in the stock seat with my helmet, so I'm looking for options - I know about the Dali lower height bottom cushion, which is certainly an option...
 
Bride Vios III is a great seat. its sits as low as possible with a slider. i have one in my rx7 and its the best seat i've used. i highly recommend it.

The stock seat sits as low as possible in the car, as the aluminum rubs the carpet at its lowest point. Look into removing the cushion or using a thinner one like the Dali. Plus, the seat without a cushion holds you much tighter since the side bolsters actually grip.
 
Agreed on both, but my own experience with taitec side mount and Recaro SPG, I'm sitting way lower than the stock seat... I in fact had to put extra padding for my own comfort.

The key of the lower height is with side mount and less padding.

Stay away from bottom mounted seats. unless you are 5 ft tall.
 
I have Status CF/KV seats with tiatec rails......I sit way lower...the bottom rubs the carpet.

if visual is good...lower.. the better for track....it helps keep center gravity lower part of your NSX.
